Intro:
Okay so here is GL chapter fourteen, it's a little boring to tell the truth but I felt it necessary. Hopefully the next chapter will be much better.
ANOUNCEMENT!: Okay, so I have two new story ideas, only problem is I kinda' promised my beta Ataraninja that I wouldn't post another story until RD (may or may not be out) had five chapters. Out. So that means that I have to wait until the one that goes out first has five chapters. Before I post the other so I'm putting it to the polls. Go to my profile now and find the place that says ATTENTION! VOTE HERE! Read it then come back finish the chapter. Put your vote in for that in your review, or you could just pm me, it's up to you. For Konaha the Other Village put in KOV, for Sisters put in S. Thank you for your time. 'bows' VOTING OVER
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or any of the original Naruto characters, I do own Kaze though, and Kyuubi's parents.

Graduation Time! – Chapter Fourteen
Genma sighed, today was the day. It had been two years since the Uchiha massacre, since then Uchiha Sasuke had moved into the Uzumaki Tatagami household he had withdrawn slightly, but due to the influence of his new found family not nearly as much as he would have had he been alone.
"Alright class!" said Genma, getting everyone's attention. "Today is graduation day." He had to pause at this as the class erupted into cheers. Once they had settled down he continued. "I will call your name and put you in your teams. You will then be picked up by your new sensei."
Lifting a clipboard he began to read, finally coming to the important people. "Team two; Tategami Kaze, Kimimaro, and Momochi Haku." Said people just nodded, already aware of their team.
Genma cleared his throat. "Team three consists of Tayuya, Kidomaru, and Tsuchi Kin."
"Hell yeah!" yelled Tayuya, earning a bop on the head from Kaze for her language.
Rolling his eye's Genma continued until he go to the final team. "And finally, team nine consists of Rock Lee, Tenten, and Hyuuga Neji. Become strong shinobi and make our village proud!" Genma finished.
The class waited impatiently as their sensei's began coming in to get them. The door opened and in walked one Zabuza. Looking over at his three students he said. "Team two get off your butts we have work to do!"
"Hai!" the three children echoed following him out.
Next up Ragai walked in. "Come on team three, lets go." The mentioned team got up and managed to leave the room without getting into a fight.
Later on a green spandex clad man walked in. I feel sorry for the poor fools who get stuck with that atrocity, thought Neji to himself.
"Yosh! I'm Mato Gai and team nine I am your sensei!" he said.
At this news Neji developed a twitch, Lee cheered, and Tenten… well Tenten was in shock. "Come my youthful students!' Gai continued.
"Yosh!" yelled Lee, following energetically. Neji slowly got to his feet and, walking over to Tenten, lead the shocked girl out of the classroom after their new sensei and teammate.
…two years later…
Naruto fidgeted as he waited for Iruka to call his name. "Uzumaki Tategami Naruto." Was heard. With a gulp Naruto got up and went into the test room.
"Okay Naruto, make three bunshin." said Iruka. Naruto took a deep breath as he put his hands together in a familiar sign.
"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" he muttered as three perfect copies of him popped into existence.
Iruka and his assistant, Mizuki, eyes widened. With a grin, Iruka tossed Naruto his headband. Naruto caught it and his eyes widened as Iruka put a new headband on his scared forehead. "My academy teacher gave me his when I graduated." Iruka said "And now I want you to have it." Iruka finished as Naruto's eyes watered slightly.
"Arigato, Iruka-sensei!" said Naruto, tying his new headband in place. I'm glad Kaze-onee-chan found those old clan scrolls with the Kage bunshin jutsu on them. Naruto thought to himself as he left the room proudly showing off his new headband.
Entering the class Naruto was met with cheers from his friends at the sight of his new headband. "Let's go!" yelled Naruto. As the group raced out of the classroom it became obvious that the only parents there were those of children not associated with the Uzumaki Tategami. The large group split with everyone hurrying home. Naruto and Sasuke arrived at the Uzumaki Tategami house, racing in they quickly went to their rooms.
…backyard of Uzumaki Tategami house…
"More to the right!" yelled Haku as Zabuza and Raiga moved a table outside.
"Hey Kaze can you pass out from inhaling to much helium?" asked Kyuubi in a high pinched squeaky voice. Kaze looked up from where she was filling balloons with helium to stare at the mighty Kyuubi no Kitsune. Who, with a half shrunk balloon in hand, did indeed look close to passing out.
"Dadgum' it Kyu-chan! Stop sucking the helium out of the balloons!" Kaze huffed in exasperation as Kyuubi fell over, out cold.
"Higher!" yelled Tayuya from the ground up to Kimimaro and Kidomaru who were hanging a banner that read 'Congratulations Graduates!' Kidomaru grumbled as he and Kimimaro walked higher up the side of the side of the building (using chakra to stick to the wall of course… look Kidomaru really is a spider!)
Ridomaru was in the kitchen joined by Hyuga Hanabi, Inuzuka Hana, and Haku as she finished giving Zabuza and Raiga directions. Ridomaru sat on a chair mashing a big pot full of potatoes, his hair pulled back to keep it out of the food. Hana was slicing various meats to be put on the grill, her dog partners (did you know she has three?) having been locked in a bathroom due to repeated attempts at stealing meat. Hanabi was scooping ice cream into a large punch bowl, her hair also pulled up into a bun to keep it out of the way.
Haku removed a cake form the oven and sat it on a cooling rack set up and then, grabbing some table cloths, rushed back outside. Now the tables had been set up in a semi ring with several larger tables set against the house. As Haku began putting the tablecloths on the tables Zabuza began setting up the chairs, while Raiga was now being helped by Kimimaro in setting up a sound system.
Kidomaru had been sent to the kitchen to bring out the silverware (or plastic ware rather). Tayuya had hauled the still unconscious Kyuubi up to her room and was now helping Kaze put up the balloons.
Naruto and Sasuke finally came down, each in a dress kimono. Sasuke's was black with the Uchiha fan on the back while Naruto' s was in various shades of orange starting with light orange at his shoulders and ending at a dark reddish orange at his feet. Both boys had their headbands on.
Kaze looked over at them and said. "The others should be coming soon, go greet them."
"Hai," the boys chorused quickly doing so.
Finishing Kaze and Tayuya began setting up a huge grill as Ridomaru left the kitchen and set the now obvious potato salad on one of the larger tables. (yeah, I'm not Japanese so…)
As the doorbell rang Naruto opened the door to Hinata, her father, and Neji. "Konbanwa!" the boys chorused bowing. Hinata smiled at them causing them to blush as they took in her kimono. It was black silk with a soft iris pattern on the hem (bottom). The obo (bow at waist of kimono) was a darker lavender. Just for the night she wore her headband on her forehead.
"Hi, Naruto-kun, Sasuke-kun." she said in a soft voice. Hiashi chuckled at the boys deepening blushes.
Shaking his head Naruto said. "This way please." as he lead them to the backyard. Soon the others associated with the Uzumaki Tategami began arriving with various family members.
Shino, in a plain grey kimono, Kiba in a dull red, Chioji in yellow, and Shikamaru in green. But Sakura and Ino made as big an impression as Hinata had. Ino's was black silk with a soft yellow daffodil pattern at the hem with her obo being a darker yellow. Sakura's was also black silk but with soft pink sakura petals at the hem and a slightly darker pink obo.
All of them wore their headbands on their foreheads to celebrate their graduation. As the celebration got underway the Hokage made an appearance, celebrating with the new generation of shinobi. When a large cake made its appearance there was a disturbance at the door.
Naruto looked up from his seat and frowned at the commotion. "Hokage-sama!." an ANBU yelled from the crowd. Silence filled the air (except the still playing music) as the man made his way to the sitting Hokage. "Hokage-sama!" the ANBU said again.
The Hokage nodded and said. "What's wrong?"
"Mizuki-san has stolen the forbidden scroll of sealing!" the ANBU said.
The atmosphere sparked to life as Sarutobi said. "All chunin and higher ranking ninja present follow me." looking around he received nods from those present before looking back at the ANBU and saying. "Gather all other chunin and higher rank shinobi and meet us outside of the Hokage tower." The ANBU nodded and disappeared in a swirl of leaves.
All business, the higher ranking shinobi followed the Hokage, leaving the younger children and new genin to mill about.
…next day…
Konoha was buzzing with the news at Mizuki's betrayal and eventual capture. As Naruto entered the class for the last time as a student he looked over at his friends and grinned as he took his seat, Sasuke following behind him. As Iruka entered the class the room settled down into silence.
Smiling he said. "I congratulate you all and am looking forward to seeing you move up through the ranks of shinobi. Now I will assign you to your teams and then we will break for lunch. When we return your new senseis will come and get you."
Taking a breath he began assigning teams. Naruto let his head drop as he dozed off only waking back up when he heard his name. "Team seven consists of Uzumaki Tategami Naruto, Haruno Sakura, and Uchiha Sasuke."
Smirking Sasuke looked over at his best friend. "Make sure you don't get in my way, baka." the dark haired boy said.
Naruto scowled back before saying. "That's my line, teme!" before the two could get into a fight Sakura slammed her fist on the table in front of her causing it to shake.
"We just became a team and you two are already fighting!" she said, scowling them into submission.
Hinata giggled before saying in a soft voice. "I hope everyone is together." I don't want to be on a team with someone I don't know, she thought to herself.
Sakura looked over at her friend before saying. "I'm sure you will be paired with some of the others, don't worry, Hinata-chan." Hinata nodded and turned her attention back to Iruka who had just put Ino, Shikamaru, and Chioji on a team, much to Ino's dismay.
Hearing her name Hinata looked nervously at Iruka. "Team eight, Hyuga Hinata, Inuzuka Kiba, and Abarame Shino." Iruka said causing Hinata to sigh in relief.
Sakura smiled and said. "See, I told you." Hinata nodded, a big smile on her face.
"Okay, everyone." said Iruka finishing up. "You are dismissed for lunch, be back by 1:30 to meet your new sensei." he ended causing the students to rush out of the class.
End:
There you go, I kinda' just skipped over the whole Mizuki thing. Next chapter we meet Kakashi for the first time, the question is how will he and the other new sensei's react to having students that have demonic characters and their histories? Please leave me a review regardless of whether or not the chapter is boring, I really look forward to your feedback.

Jutsu: Okay, so I have started using the original Japanese for jutsu so they will appear in Japanese in the chapter, however I will be listing them and translating them so everyone understands what they are.
Bunshin no Jutsu – means Clone/Split Body Skill, A jutsu that creates an illusionary clone of the user, in numbers of 1 or more. The Clone disappears after being struck with an attack, and can deal no damage. This jutsu is one of the basics, and required to pass the Shinobi Academy, these are the bunshin Iruka expected Naruto to create.
Kage Bunshin no Jutsu – means Shadow Clone Skill, A forbidden jutsu, that creates clones - which are not just plain illusions (like the normal bunshin no jutsu). Each clone is an exact replica of Naruto, capable of attacking. A direct hit causes the clone to disappear.
From my beta Ataraninja: I liked this chapter. One question, this is back to the normal time right? (the one in the first part of the manga) Yeah well I liked it and I thought it was cute that you made Sasuke and Naruto blush when Hinata appeared at the door. Hehe.
HNN: yep we are officially back to where the original started -
From my other beta Blue Bunny2:
;laughs; You just completely ignored Mizuki this time around. Yay, we're finally at the beginning! ;laughs; Loved the kimonos.
HNN: Arigato 'bows' I have always thought that black made bright colors pop even more and thought they'd be pretty (sexy really lol) and yeah truth is Mizuki isn't worth worrying about…at least in this story he wasn't lol
